EN 21 Thou Spakest, Lord, and into One
Gen.1.9
Versi Version 1
1
Thou spakest, Lord, and into one
The floods together flowed;
Freed from its watery veil, the land
Its verdant pastures showed.
2
O Father, who the earth has given
Our place of toil to be,
Knit all within its one wide bound
In one true charity.
3
Strangers and pilgrims here below,
We seek a home above,
Where Thou wilt gather in Thine own
Who live in holy love.
4
Unloving words, with deeds of ill
And words of angry strife,
Shall never, Lord, Thy glory see,
Nor win the heavenly life.
5
The earth itself from day to day
Their burden scarce sustains,
And yearns, in travail, to be free
From dark corruption’s chains.
6
Yea, we too groan within ourselves,
And that adoption wait
For which the Holy Spirit’s seal
Did us predestinate.
7
Eternal glory be ascribed
To God, the One in Three,
By Whom is poured into our hearts
The grace of charity.
